...press should be so diligent on other issues of equal import. Yet, the media's persistence in challenging the Nixonian ill-regard for the First Amendment grows out of an endemic responsibility to safeguard the public. Self-righteous as it sometimes appears, this feeling is deep-seated throughout the print and broadcast industry. Examples have been abundant of late. Half a dozen newsmen have chosen to go to jail rather than violate confidential relationships with sources; commentators and columnists of all political persuasions have lambasted grand jury pressure to force reporters to divulge sources.

In print form, Pelham One Two Three is really only a short connecting ride between the scary movies that seem to have inspired it and the scary movie that it all too clearly aspires...
